A Concert with Spirit Voyage recording artist GURUNAM SINGH
When Gurunam Singh graduated high school he was given a guitar and began
composing simple songs. At 22 he found Yogi Bhajan and Sikh Dharma. He
sang and played along with others and over time began leading chants in
the early morning hours, before the rising of the sun. He spent lots of
time in the solitude of his own home, and in the Sikh temple late at
night, chanting to God and writing devotional songs. Gurunam's
influences range from gospel, folk and country to classical Indian raag
and traditional Sikh hymns to many of the current artists who sing
devotional Hindu chants. He occasionally studied with some great ragi's
such as Bhai Avtar Singh, from India, and Dya Singh from Australia. But
his music is very simple. Anyone can chant along.

A Concert with MIRABAI CEIBA
Mirabai Ceiba is a musical project created by Angelika Baumbach from
Mexico / U.S. (vocal and harp) and Markus Sieber from Germany (vocal
and guitar). They perform a compilation of original songs in Spanish
and English as well as newly arranged chants from different
traditions of the world and Gurmukhi Mantras. The name Mirabai Ceiba
expresses the influences of both India and Native Latin America. The
Ceiba is the sacred tree of Latin America, where these trees are
never cut but are allowed to grow very tall. "We wish our music
could be like that kind of tree, with roots deep in the Mother Earth
and branches extending wide into Father Sky. Mirabai is for us the
wandering, the devotion, the inspiration in all the different
aspects of divinity."
